Scenario:

We often need to get DDL( Data Definition Language) scripts for different objects such as tables, views and Stored Procedures etc.
Is it possible to generate Create Table statement for a table in SSMS?
If I need to generate Create statement for all the tables/view, Will SSMS let me do it?

Solution:

Generate Script for Single Object:

SQL Server Management Studio ( SSMS) does provide the feature to script single or all objects. To generate DDL script for single object, You can right click on the object and then choose the statement you like to create. Let's say if we would like to generate create table statement for existing table, we will choose below options.

This is also easy. You need to Right click on the Database in which the objects exists. Then go to Tasks and hit Generate Scripts.
